Six patients with typhoid fever and one with S. parathyphi-A septicaemia all fell ill within the first few weeks after arrival. A child of a chronic S. typhi carrier developed typhoid fever four months after arrival. Cases of sporadic and mild diarrhoea occurred due to Salmonella and Shigella species. The carriers were instructed in prophylactic, hygienic measures and no outbreaks developed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>The health check system in this period seemed to be sufficient in relation to preventing outbreaks of infections caused by non-typhoid Salmonella and Shigella species. The relative cost-effectiveness of a more intensive S. typhi screening on arrival is questionable. The organization of health check systems should be reviewed regularly, as each refugee situation is different and will change in different periods.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/140349489001800304","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,2,9]],"date-time":"2009-02-09T12:33:36Z","timestamp":1234182816000},"page":"175-178","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Salmonella and Shigella Carriers Among Refugees from the Middle East and Sri Lanka in Denmark"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Helge","family":"Kjersem","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Helge Kjersem, From the Department of Treponematoses, Toxoplasmosis Laboratory, Statens Seruminstitut, Copenhagen, Address for offprints: Helge Kjersem MD, Department of Diagnostic Bacteriology, Statens Seruminstitut, Amager Boulevard 80, DK-2300 Copenhagen S, Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S\u00f8ren","family":"Jepsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dept of Infectious Diseases, Marselisborg Hospital, Aarhus"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Leith","family":"Larsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Danish Red Cross, Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Finn","family":"Black","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dept of Infectious Diseases, Marselisborg Hospital, Aarhus"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1990,9,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0035-9203(84)90004-X"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM198401123100210"},{"key":"atypb3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/clinids\/8.3.329"},{"key":"atypb4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/infdis\/148.3.599"},{"key":"atypb5","first-page":"2435","volume":"144","author":"Kjersem H","year":"1982","journal-title":"Ugeskr Laeger"},{"key":"atypb6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinte.1984.00350150127032"},{"key":"atypb7","volume-title":"Bakteriologiske unders\u00f8gelsesmetoder","author":"Lautrop H","year":"1979"},{"key":"atypb8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0016-5085(79)90403-7"},{"key":"atypb9","volume-title":"Medical Microbiology","author":"Cruickshank R","year":"1973"},{"key":"atypb10","first-page":"263","volume-title":"Manual of clinical microbiology","author":"Kelly MT","year":"1985","edition":"4"},{"key":"atypb11","first-page":"1270","volume-title":"Principle and practice of infectious diseases","author":"Dupont HL.","year":"1985","edition":"2"}],"container-title":["Scandinavian Journal of Social Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/140349489001800304","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/140349489001800304","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,2]],"date-time":"2026-05-02T04:24:05Z","timestamp":1777695845000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/140349489001800304"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1990,9]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[1990,9]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/140349489001800304"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/140349489001800304","relation":{},"ISSN":["0300-8037"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0300-8037","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[1990,9]]}}}
